Remember, according to the small Canadian man, adblock is theft
Piracy, actually, but yes. That tweet was such a dumpster fire. All it accomplished was it showed how grossly misinformed Linus was about this topic. How ad blocking equals copyright infringement is beyond me.
He's 100% Dependent of advertising on YouTube. So his statement is not only biased but completely in favor of his income.
People are in favor of them having food on the table, who would have thought?
But then again theft is not theft according to the same small Canadian man.
It's only theft if he loses money.
And sexual harassment in the workplace is not actually sexual harassment either according to the same man.
Ootl --what'd he do this time?
He auctioned of a startup's prototype without permission.
I've followed Linus off and on from the jump, but I'ma listen to actual security experts over him lol.
